When would you be able to start?

 

As a general contractor, we get an opportunity to work for all sorts of clients. The work that we do comes in all shapes and sizes, and levels of urgency. I have been doing deck railing with viewproperty repair and improvement for over 25 years; I have become quite the juggler of construction projects.

At any time I can give you a rough estimate as to when we can start. I may be able to slip your small repair in tomorrow. That week long deck project can be started in about a week. Replacing the siding on your investment property can be done right after we wrap up the job we are starting today.

These are just estimates at this point. Rarely do we change our schedule that we have committed to doing; a serious emergency would be the exception here. Everyone affected will be contacted and the situation explained.

 

So to answer the question – When can we start the work?

 

The single most important factor in determining when we can start is YOU making the commitment to doing the repair or improvement.

 

apartment balcony repairedI don’t want anyone to feel pressured into hiring us, we don’t operate that way. Without a commitment to begin though, we can’t plan on a start date. Imagine that we get together and discuss your dry rot repair, I send you an estimate and it looks like we can start next Tuesday. If I haven’t heard back in a few days, it is very likely that opening next Tuesday will be taken by another project.

We make every effort to get jobs done quickly while maintaining a level of workmanship that the client will be willing to refer us to someone else.


If this is something that you want in a general contractor, give us a call.

We would love the opportunity to show you what we can do for you.

In my experience sometime the best contractors can not start soon enough since they are in such demand.

Good morning Tom. This is terrific information and timely for me. I am meeting contractors next week for an estimate of a job on a home I hope to close later in June. I asked them on the phone what availabity they would have if we can come together. It is a mutual commitment though. Nicely done.

Being able to make a decision to authorize the job can get things moving pretty quickly.  If they can't make the decision in a reasonable time, they probably never will.  It's tough to schedule around other people's decisions.

Tom

I can imagine that you must have honed your project management skills to perfection, having to juggle so may projects all at once. But yes, total commitment from the client is essential. That includes their doing what they're supposed to do so that you can work -- like getting the place ready for your workers, and providing access

Well said Edward, especially in the current environment.

Being busy, when there isn't a lot of work out there, must mean something.

That has been my experience too Doug. Those that can make the decision will usually do so, one way or the other, right away.

I had to laugh at your comment Pacita, I can't tell you how many times we show up and have to do the things that the owner or resident was supposed to do.
